Like our local community garden's Hallowe'en display, the fun of punk is in it's variety. Dave Stevenson, curated, programmed and hosted a Hallowe'en show that features many punk takes on the day. A quick glance below points out the themes, but the devil is in the detail, the stories behind the song selection. We could barely get away without talking about each of these songs for their own unique back stories. And a Misfits tribute was long overdue. Listen on the player above or take the show with you by downloading it here.
